Abstract

The referral quality will affect the outcome of referred patients. The quality of emergency referrals from the Public Health Center (PHC) in Banten Province has not been examined. This study aims to analyze the quality of emergency referrals from PHC and the factors that influence it. Observational analytics with a retrospective approach to a PHC in Banten Province, Indonesia. The reference data for March-May 2023 is taken consecutively. Data on the demographics of referrers and referral cases are recorded. The quality of referrals is analyzed using national personal referral standards. A total of 52 referral cases were involved in the study. Referrals were made by nurses with an average age of 28.2 years with a range of 23-43 years, men (38/73.1%), and with diploma education (30/57.7%). Most of the referring nurses have a valid Basic Life Support (BLS) certificate (46/88.5), are non-civil servants, and work for an average of 3.3 years. Most of the referred cases are surgical (28/53.8) and urgency cases (32/61.5). Forty-four referral cases (84.6%) did not meet national referral standards. The referring nurse's educational background and the urgency of the case had a significant relationship with the quality of referrals with p values < α values of 0.05 (0.000 and 0.000 respectively). There was no significant relationship between referral quality and patient/family satisfaction. Conclusion: Most PHC's emergency referrals to hospital emergency departments (ED) have not complied with national standards. There was a significant relationship between the education of the referring nurse and the level of urgency of the case with the quality of PHC referrals. There is no relationship between referral quality and patient/family satisfaction. National technical guidelines for individual referrals for emergency cases are needed.

Abstract

Antenatal care is crucial for the survival of both the mother and fetus during pregnancy and childbirth. ANC services consist of observation, education, and treatment for pregnant women. The objective of this research is to identify the factors that affect maternal compliance with Antenatal Care Visits at the Eka Sriwahyuni Clinic in Medan. The research design is analytical observation. The study population comprised of 17 pregnant women who attended Posyandu Klinik Eka Sriwahyuni Medan. The sample was selected using total sampling technique. Data was collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using the Chi Square test (p value <0.05). The study found that 64.7% of respondents had sufficient knowledge, 70.6% had attitudes in the sufficient category, and 52.9% had husband support in the sufficient and partial categories. Additionally, 64.7% of respondents had good compliance with visits. The chi-square test results indicate a relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and husband's support factors and compliance with Antenatal Care Visits at the Eka Sriwahyuni Clinic in Medan. To further explore factors that may influence ANC visit compliance, future researchers should consider economic factors and distance from health facilities. This research involved visiting respondents individually, which may have been less effective.

Abstract

Perinatal depression, commonly known as postpartum depression, is a serious complication of childbirth that can have significant adverse effects on both the mother and baby. It typically occurs 4-6 weeks after giving birth. Mothers require family and social support to cope with stress during the postpartum period, which is caused by sudden hormonal changes that affect mood swings, the burden of household work, and caring for the baby and mother. This can result in fatigue and lack of sleep. The research aims to analyze the impact of family and social support on the occurrence of depression. The study employed an analytical observational method with a cross-sectional approach to examine the population of postpartum mothers aged 0-6 weeks in the Sukoharjo District Health Service work area. The sample size consisted of 160 respondents selected through Multistage Random Sampling. The study utilized family support questionnaires, social support, and EPDS (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale) as instruments. Logistic regression and Odd Ratio were used for data analysis. The data analysis results for family support yielded a P-value of 0.027 < (0.05) and an OR value of 5.787. The analysis for social support resulted in a P-value of 0.025 < (0.05) and an OR value of 5.693. These results indicate a significant influence of family and social support on the occurrence of DEPRESSION. Mothers who lack family and social support are at a higher risk of experiencing DEPRESSION, with a risk 5.787 and 5.693 times higher, respectively. Healthcare professionals should prioritize the significance of family and social support for postpartum mothers, providing both emotional and technical assistance. This includes aiding mothers in caring for their babies, self-care, and household tasks to mitigate the risk of postpartum depression.

Abstract

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) Lifestyle factors contribute to fatty liver disease. Physical activity, weight loss, and antioxidant-rich components like Salak herb are used to minimize liver disease. The study examined how Salak bark extract affected liver function in white male Wistar rats, an obesity model, and histopathology. An actual experiment or laboratory experimental design is used in this quantitative research. Four experimental groups of 24 mice were employed. Research data was analyzed with SPSS 25.0. Normality test findings reveal 2-tailed significance of 0.991 > 0.05. The One-Way ANOVA test at a 95% confidence level for the SGOT liver function analysis data showed the same variance, 0.233 (p>0.05) and 0.718 (p>0.05) for the SGPT liver function analysis. Histopathological studies showed snake fruit extract at 300mg/BW scored 3 (Hydropic degeneration), 500mg/BW scored 2 (Parenchymatous degeneration), and 700mg/BW scored 1 (Normal). The phytochemical screening of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and glycosides demonstrated that Salak bark extract's secondary metabolite concentration contains antioxidant-effective active components. The study demonstrated no inflammation, cell improvement, necrosis, or fat at 700 mg/BW.
